Kansas Prairie Pickers Association

In June we put on the Prairie Lake Pickin' Party, our own
festival featuring local and regional bands and plenty of
pickin' around the festival grounds.
The city has a small stage in some shade trees of this
nice lake. We have our annual membership meeting there,
and a band scramble to give pickers a chance to meet new people
and do short stage performances. Simple camping (dry),
partial shade, with a pit toilet and electricity available at most sites.
Remember to bring your lawn chairs to watch the show!
